[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1004082, member: 56231"] I've searched the forums as far back as 2008 - no joy. I wonder if someone can tell me how to change a country in Dashboard [B]weather[/B] settings. I know about the + button and the [I]i[/I] button in individual widgets, but neither of those allows me to change a [B]country[/B] in weather. I've checked Apple and MacOS Help, but neither of those tells me. Situation: the city nearest to my location is Christchurch, New Zealand. The weather widget in D'board allows me Christchurch, Vancouver - where the weather, especially the temperature, is greatly different! Strangely, when I tried a large-ish town named Blenheim, NZ, some 300 km away, I was given several options of that name in different parts of the world - but once only! Some other smaller NZ cities I tried didn't register with D'board at all. Two thoughts: 1. would trashing the D'board Prefs give me a 'fresh start'? or 2. is there a way to add to or remove items from the list of cities, countries etc that Dashboard weather uses? [/QUOTE]
